The mystical sword from many of the other Zelda titles makes an appearance!
It's the only thing that can defeat the King of Evil, so it's a good thing
you get it, huh? This trusty blade fits your new size and has further
range than your Kokiri treasure. Your Spin Attack is quite improved with it
as well.

You receive this blade shortly after getting the three Spiritual Stones and
opening the Door of Time.

Biggoron's Sword

Adult

This two handed blade does twice the damage of the Master Sword! You can't
use your shield while you wield it however... It's very
handy to take down some of the harder "big health" enemies such as Stalfos,
and it's excellent against almost all of the bosses, in particular Dark Link
and Bongo Bongo. Unfortunately, it's awkward to use against flying enemies
like Keese and Guays or ranged foes.

You get this sword from Biggoron atop Death Mountain (thus, the name). It's
the end reward of a very lengthy trading sequence.

Shield Upgrades

Hylian Shield

Both

The second shield of the game, this trustworthy defense is made of steel and
won't burn up like your last shield. Unfortunately, it's too big for you as
a child and leaves you to hide under it rather than walk around. Later on,
you'll be able to maneuver with it much easier. As an adult, this shield
will reflect normal type attacks back at your enemies.

This shield can be bought from the shop in Hyrule Town Market (past) or in
Kakariko Village (future) for 80 Rupees. For the initial purchase, if you
talk to the guard at the base of Death Mountain first, he'll knock the price
down to 60. There is, however, a free Hylian Shield hidden in the
Graveyard...

Mirror Shield

Adult

This sturdy shield is tougher than heck! regular projectiles just smash into
pieces when they hit this shield, while magical attacks disintigrate against
it (and sometimes even get reflected)! If you have this shield equipped and
get swallowed by a Like Like, it won't eat it, which is cool (especially
since you can't buy it back o.O)

It's found in the second half of the Spirit Temple and is required to defeat
the boss of the temple, the Twinrova sisters.

Another thing worth noting is that the design for
the original game (N64) was the shape of a crescent moon and a star,
which resembles a religious symbol and was thus changed for the
Master Quest and later versions of the game.

A (Pick Up)

Goron's Bracelet

Child

This bracelet allows you to pick up plants and rip them right out of the
ground, roots and all! Sounds dumb, but let's see you do it - it's hard!

You get this item from Darunia in Goron City. It's required in order to
enter Dodongo's Cavern.

Silver Gauntlets

Adult

Most people have to pump iron for ages before they can finally pick up
really heavy things. Not Link. He cheats and gets these things to let him
pick up silver boulders. This is, of course, assuming that silver boulders
are heavier than regular boulders. Didn't you learn that in school? I think
I missed that somehow... Also, wouldn't this make Link swing his sword
harder or something? I guess not.

These gauntlets are found in the first half of the Spirit Temple.

Golden Gauntlets

Adult

How could it get any better than picking up silver boulders man, I mean,
come on, silver boulders... Well, Nintendo managed to come up with an
excuse. There's even bigger silver things! That's right, silver
and big! There's three colossal silver obelisks (tall object with a
pyramid shaped top) found in the game: two within Ganon's Castle, one blocking the way to the Light Barrier and the other inside the Fire Barrier itself, while the final one is just outside the castle guarding the
final Great Fairy Fountain in the game. Just press A while standing next to them and watch the cinematic.
Ooooo...

This upgraded pair of gloves are found in Ganon's Castle in the Shadow Wing.

Diving

Silver Scale

Child

This cool blue thing is a scale from one of the Zoras. Apparently, if you
rip one of those off of them or catch them after shaving, you can get one of
these things! It lets you dive down to 3 additional units (meters?) which
gives you a total of 6! That's deep man, real deep!

This item is a prize for beating the Diving Game in Zora's Domain the first
time.

Golden Scale

Both

This golden variety of the last item (straight from a mystical golden Zora?)
allows you to dive an additional additional 3 units (meters?) which
gives you a total of 9! Just crazy I tell you... It's only really good to
get a heart piece, but it is pretty nice for the Water Temple as well,
assuming you know how to get it early with the Scarecrow's Song...

You can win this item by getting a fish that's 15+ pounds at the Fishing
Pond in Lake Hylia.

Wallets

Adult's Wallet

Both

Finally! This upgraded wallet lets you carry up to 200 Rupees! Not great,
but still good.

You get this prize from the first child (10+ tokens) in the House of Skulltula.

Giant's Wallet

Both

Woot! The final upgrade for the wallet gives you a limit of 500 Rupees!
Unfortunately, by the time you can hold that much, you don't really need to
save up your Rupees for anything... All well, it still feels good...

You get this prize from the third child (30+ tokens) in the House of Skulltula.
